Description:
This impressionist harbour view by Fanch Lel captures the coastal town of La Trinité-sur-Mer, a beloved fishing port and sailing destination in southern Brittany. The painting shows a lively marina scene with small moored fishing boats reflected in calm waters, while a row of traditional Breton houses rises above the stone arched bridge that spans the harbour’s edge.
The cloudy sky and muted light lend the scene a soft, overcast atmosphere, typical of the region’s coastal weather. Brushstrokes in pink, peach, slate grey, and faded turquoise evoke both the texture of the architecture and the shimmer of the sea. Lel’s loose style conveys the atmosphere of a lived-in port town, alive with history, wind, and salt air.
In the foreground, tree trunks and loosely painted figures hint at daily movement—perhaps fishermen returning, or townspeople observing the tide. The inscription on the back confirms the specific location, making this a highly collectable and geographically relevant piece for lovers of French maritime towns.
Ideal for collectors of coastal landscapes, vintage travel-inspired scenes, or impressionist paintings of Brittany. A wonderful addition to homes with nautical, French, or rustic interior themes.

Fanch Lel
Fanch Lel’s paintings, primarily executed in oil and gouache, evoke the serenity and charm of the French countryside, with a particular emphasis on the region's coastal and rural beauty. His works often highlight iconic landmarks such as Mont Saint-Michel and capture the essence of Breton culture with his portrayals of the region’s people and customs. Lel's self-taught, plein air approach allows for dynamic compositions that reflect the atmospheric light and textures of the region, giving his pieces a timeless appeal. His choice of soft, muted colors and rich textures brings a sense of nostalgia and quietude to each painting, making them a perfect addition to collections that appreciate mid-century French art. A member of the Société des Artistes Indépendants and a Knight of the Palmes Académiques, Fanch Lel's works have been featured in numerous exhibitions across France, including in Paris, Avranches, Dinard, and Pont-Aven, to name a few. His art has been highly sought after by collectors for decades.
